We got to get our head out of the paper work
Paper is not real
People are
Paper has no feelings
People do
Paper is a creation without understanding
It's clear cut, black and white
People aren't
Who will get paper cut today?
Paper robs and cheats by taking the place of justice
No, you can't trust people
They're inconsistent
What makes you think you can pin them down
With a signature, on a piece of paper

If you understand
You can trust your understanding
By knowing what to expect
You can know what needs to be done
You can rule your world
By knowing what to do
To make something happen
With understanding
Instead of a piece of paper
